You despise all who stray from your statutes, for they are deceptive and unreliable.

You remove all the wicked of the earth like slag. Therefore I love your rules.

Direct my steps by your word! Do not let any sin dominate me!

ק (Qof) I cried out with all my heart, “Answer me, O Lord! I will observe your statutes.”

Your instructions are totally reliable; all your just regulations endure.

I keep your precepts and rules, for you are aware of everything I do.

May my tongue sing about your instructions, for all your commands are just.

The Lord will protect you from all harm; he will protect your life.

A song of ascents. How blessed is every one of the Lord’s loyal followers, each one who keeps his commands!

A song of ascents. O Lord, for David’s sake remember all his strenuous effort,

He performed awesome deeds and acts of judgment in your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.

Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them.

to the one who gives food to all living things, for his loyal love endures.

By David. I will give you thanks with all my heart; before the heavenly assembly I will sing praises to you.

Certainly my tongue does not frame a word without you, O Lord, being thoroughly aware of it.

Every day I will praise you! I will praise your name continually!

You open your hand, and fill every living thing with the food they desire.

Praise him, O sun and moon! Praise him, all you shiny stars!

Praise the Lord from the earth, you sea creatures and all you ocean depths,

We will seize all kinds of precious wealth; we will fill our houses with plunder.
